1. Run the installer for the software distribution you are using—Sun Java
Enterprise System software or the stand-alone Sun Java System Application
Server software.
2. When you are asked which components you want to install, select Load
Balancing Plug-in.
On the Sun Java Enterprise System installer, you must expand the Application
Server item to see the Load Balancing Plug-in. It is not selected for installation by
